In Response To: Re: Vintage Seamaster ()

I have had the watch for a few days and it iS running very very fast. I am sure it needs an adjustment`.

If you mean you set it to correct time and it
: GAINS 20-24 minutes over X days, then it is
: running fast and simply needs adjustment.

: There were MANY models of Seamaster Deville,
: with various different movements inside. So
: without knowing the exact movement in your
: watch, any answer will be guesswork.

: But determining it should be childlshly
: obvious. Turn the crown in each position and
: see what happens! Normally, the
: all-the-way-in position winds the watch. The
: second usually advances the date if turned
: in the right direction (if the watch has
: that feature) and the all-the-way-out
: position should set the time.

: Shouldn't be any more functions than that
: unless you watch has a day-of-the-week
: feature.
